I wanted to keep the colours quite simple and so I teamed the image with a piece of paper from an Echo park collection called Keepin Cozy. I hand cut a wavy edge and mounted it onto red bazzill and simply followed the edge. I used a Lawn Fawn die cut for the Christmas and the other letters are from Doodlebug. I added a few clear gems from Papermania and a little star dust stickles on the fluff of the hat. (I've just noticed I haven't coloured the Bears Bow??! - How did I miss that?)

About Me

I have always been a bit of an addict to crafty things and colour.... I would walk around lovely shops thinking "Umm... wonder if I could make one like that?" So I started trying. I love colourful patterns and paper and putting them together on my Handmade cards. But the blog & facebook page started to give the Monkeys a home! I make Sock Monkeys under the name, "Lilibet made Monkeys". The Monkeys are available for sale and can be made to order as can any cards. Email me at lilibetsmonkeyhut@hotmail.co.uk
You can also see Monkeys looking for new homes and other items available to buy on my Pintrest, Instagram Flickr and facebook page.
Just search for Lilibets Monkey Hut (:(|)x
